Installation/Support Tips

Installing Diskette Drives

Make sure that the drive type has been correctly selected in the SETUP program.

Installing Hard Disk Drives

When installing a hard disk drive, see the hard disk drive type tables on page 6 to select the correct type number for the drive. If the parameters for your drive are not listed, you can define your own drive type by selecting drive type 47 and entering the drive’s exact parameters for this user-defined drive type.

It is recommended that a 16-bit, AT-type hard disk controller be used if you are installing a drive that cannot use the embedded IDE interface. If you install a non-IDE hard disk drive and controller card, you need to use the SETUP program to disable the built-in IDE hard disk drive interface.

Software Problems

0 When installing a copy-protected software package, first try the installation at high speed. If this does not work properly, select low speed by pressing the Ctrl and Alt keys and the - key on the numeric keypad simultaneously. Try loading the program at low speed and then switching to high speed, if possible.

0When using a software package that uses a key disk as its copy-protection method, try loading it at high speed. If this does not work, load it at low speed.

Booting Sequence

If you cannot boot the computer from the hard disk, make sure the booting sequence in SETUP is set to A: then C:. Then boot the computer from a system diskette in drive A.

Password

Make sure that you do not forget the password you set up. If you do:

Disable the password by setting DIP switch 4 on the main system board to OFF.

Then turn the computer on and off again.

Set DIP switch 4 to ON to enable the password function.

Run SETUP to enter a new password, if desired.

You can also enter a hot key designation in SETUP to secure the system from unauthorized users. Once a password and hot key have been set, when the hot key is pressed, the keyboard and mouse lock until the the user enters the password.
